hello, when I write this code:
def get_name()
print "Enter your name: "
return gets.chomp
end
def greet(name)
puts "Hi #{name}"
if (name == "fede")
puts "Nice name"
end
end
def get_number(number)
print "gimme a number"
return gets.chomp.to_i
end
def divisible_by_3?(number)
return (number % 3 == 0)
end
name = get_name()
greet(name)
number = get_number()
if divisible_by_3?(number)
puts "Your number is divisible by 3"
end
I keep on getting this message in the console:
treehouse:~/workspace$ ruby number.rb
Enter your name: fede
Hi fede
Nice name
number.rb:13:in get_number': wrong number of arguments (0 for 1) (Argum
entError)
from number.rb:24:in<main>'

def get_number(number)
You are declaring that every time you call this method, you will pass an argument into it and that this argument will be referred to as number inside the method.
In this line:
number = get_number()
You are calling the aforementioned method, but you are not passing any value inside the parentheses and it expected one argument.
I think you should just change the definition to this:
def get_number()
